Why does my jaw look wonky? (Photo)

Question

Hi my jaw looks wonky and thinner on one side of my face than the other, how can I fix this? Would fillers work? I'm fed up of looking ugly :(

Thank you for your picture. I see the difference that you are speaking of.  The difference in the two sides can be due to the bone or the skin (soft tissue).  Depending on which side you prefer the opposite side could be improved.  The best way to determine the nature of your issue and possible solution would be to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Best wishes.

The one side of your jaw looks smaller than the other at the jaw angle area. While fillers could be used for a temporary augmentation effect, a small jaw angle implant would provide a better and permanent solution.
